Leveraging Multicenter Databases to Improve Care in Pediatric Vascular Surgery

Abstract

Pediatric vascular surgical problems are rare and variable in presentation, thus making them challenging to characterize and treat. The diversity of patient conditions and size combined with variability in pediatric vascular surgical training leads to an ad hoc approach to these patients. With few published guidelines as well as a lack of robust research to support evidence-based assertions, pediatric vascular practices have been largely driven by anecdotal evidence and limited retrospective single-institution reviews.
